Visual Arts
The Visual Arts at Gonzaga can take many forms, from paintings to digital creations and almost everything in between.
Students in our Visual Arts classes learn primarily through hands-on, participatory experiences. For example, as students progress through the curriculum of arts elective courses, they’ll experiment with dry media (such as graphite, charcoal, and pastel), painting, and sculpture, then move on to creating 3-D architectural models or computer generated art. Other offerings include classes in photography and graphic design.
Students interested in sharing their artwork with the school community have a variety of outlets and different ways to expand their skillset outside of the classroom.
